CHRISTOPHER DINCUFF: He Knew How to
Share
What
his friends and family will tell you about Christopher
Dincuff, who would have been 32 today, an assistant
trader for Carr Futures, is that he was always
smiling.
"He always made people feel welcome," said his mother,
Joan. "I never had to teach him how to share." He became
the center of a large circle of friends, some of whom had
known him since childhood in South River, N.J. All of
them learned that if the Villanova Wildcats were playing
basketball, he had to hear or see the game.
"He has driven his car to remote places just to get
the Villanova game on the radio," said Garth Smalley, his
best friend. Mr. Dincuff's father, Jim, a Seton Hall
graduate, accompanied him to Seton Hall-Villanova
games.
Mr. Dincuff's proposal to his fiancee, Angie
Gutermuth, last February encompassed several passions at
once. As Ms. Gutermuth opened the door to her apartment,
exhausted after business-school exams, she discovered a
trail of rose petals, illuminated by candles, that led to
Mr. Dincuff, dozens of helium balloons arrayed around
him. There was champagne, and music, and a ring he had
designed himself. He arranged for her to have a manicure
the next day, at the same time there was a Villanova game
on TV.
